He was surprised to hear Bryson's voice.
"Uncle Bryson? Why are you answering Audrey's phone?" Simon asked in confusion.
"Answer my question!"
Simon remained silent.
Answer? How should he answer that?
Simon's mind raced, "Uncle Bryson, the signal here is suddenly weak. Uncle? I can't hear your voice! I'm afraid my phone doesn't work..."
Then Bryson only heard a beep.
Audrey really admired Simon now.
He was indeed quick-witted.
Bryson returned Audrey's phone and dialed another number with his phone.
With her sharp eyes, Audrey saw that the person Bryson was calling was surnamed 'Randall'.
Soon, Bryson got through.
As expected, the person he called was his brother-in-law.
Bryson told his brother-in-law where Simon was now.
While they were talking, Audrey heard Bryson's brother-in-law say with extreme anger that he would definitely give Simon a lesson. Then the conversation was over.
After hanging up the phone, Bryson maintained a poker face, as if he didn't do anything.
Audrey didn't know what to say.
She could picture the scene Simon was beaten by his father.
She didn't expect that Bryson looked upright, but he would rat on Simon in front of her.
Seeing that Bryson was about to turn to look at her, she immediately looked towards the window and pretended to have heard nothing.
She couldn't let Bryson find that she knew he did something bad. Even if Bryson asked, nothing heard would be her answer.
As a lawyer, she should always tell the truth. But ever since she met Bryson, she found herself violating professional ethics again and again.
Her phone rang again.
She checked it and found it was Kylee.
She picked up the phone at once.
"Grandma, we're on our way home. We'll be back soon."
"Don't come home for dinner tonight!"
Audrey was confused.
She frowned and whispered to Bryson, "Grandma just told us not to go home for dinner."
She asked, "Grandma, what's happening? Why can't we go back?"
"The daughter of our cook, Daniel Davidson, has just given birth. I am in the hospital with him. You guys just eat out tonight."
"Which hospital are you in? We'll pick you up after dinner."
"I can't remember that. I'll have Daniel's son-in-law use my phone to text you the address later."
"Alright."
Audrey hung up and looked at Bryson.
"Grandma said that Daniel's daughter had born a baby, so she went to the hospital with him. She asked us to eat out and then pick her up at the hospital."
"Alright. Let's go to a restaurant nearby. There is a famous restaurant ahead."
Audrey happily answered, "Good."
...
Ten minutes later, Audrey and Bryson sat in a private room of a five-star restaurant.
Audrey sat down and was a bit shocked by the menu.
